So anytime something bad happens it’s because of America? That’s convenient. I’m pretty sure law enforcement violence was around long before America.

"Being overweight not linked to dying early, study says, but questions remain | CNN"
Key passage:
“The real message of this study is that overweight as defined by BMI is a poor indicator of mortality risk, and that BMI in general is a poor indicator of health risk and should be supplemented with information such as waist circumference, other measures of adiposity (fat), and weight trajectory,” said study first author Dr. Aayush Visaria, an internal medicine resident physician at the Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick, New Jersey.

When you have a group that don’t respect the rules and you don’t want to lower yourself to their level of discussion, you cut them out. Why would they be tolerated? And who is at fault here? The people wanting civility or the trolls causing issues? Why are you blaming the people defending themselves?

Good example! This is exactly the type of low effort, high judgement user they probably want to avoid.

I have some of both and they aren't really similar. Sriracha is sweeter and has more garlic flavor. They seem to have a different vibe. Both are tasty though.

There were articles that this was going to happen a year ago. I'm glad I bought enough to last a while. Another fantastic hot sauce is Secret Aardvark. It's hotter than Sriracha but has great flavor.

Introducing https://feddit.online, a new KBIN server
Since you have experience, can I ask how much you expect it to cost to run? I have a couple decades in IT, an AWS cert, a great domain name, and a bit of disposable income. I’m thinking of putting one up myself.

GOG is doing much better than in 2022
I haven’t bought a GOG game since I got my steamdeck. The convenience of native steam games is important.

ULPT Whenever buying something online, try using the coupon code "military". Many sites have a military discount and don't require any proof of military service.
If it’s abused it will be removed as a perk and military folks won’t be able to use it.

One of the benefits of federation is the ability to choose your sources. If one doesn’t fit your moderation style you remove it. It’s a feature, not a minus. Expect more of this until the mod tools mature and trolls make homes among the open servers.

Stoner engineering has its perils

Man, I spent so much time finding crazy ways to get high when I was in college—crazy bongs, hydroponics, lettuce hash, and even electronic hash smoking device I built from plans in High Times. I probably could have solved cold fusion if I would have directed my energy more appropriately.
